Fireplace Installation
!NOTE: A 10 Amp, 240 Volt
circuit is required. A dedicated
circuit is preferred but not
essential in all cases. A
dedicated circuit will be
required if, after installation,
the circuit breaker trips or the
fuse blows on a regular basis
when the heater is operating.
Additional appliances on the
same circuit may exceed the
current rating of the circuit
breaker.
CAUTION: The heater must
not be located immediately
above a socket outlet.
WARNING: Ensure the power
cord is not installed so that it is
pinched or against a sharp
edge and ensure that the
power cord is stored or
secured to avoid tripping or
snagging to reduce the risk of
re, electric shock or injury to
persons.
Construction and electrical
outlet wiring must comply with
local building codes and other
applicable regulations to
reduce the risk of re, electric
shock and injury to persons.
Do not attempt to wire your
own new outlets or circuits. To
Quick Reference Guide

replace verify:
• Are the circuit breakers for the
unit on?
• Are the light bulbs loose? (To
check, follow the instructions
for replacing the light bulbs
under the maintenance section
of this manual)

reduce the risk of re, electric
shock or injury to persons,
always use a licensed
electrician.
WARNING: The Convex In-
Stud replace is wall
mountable and can be built in
a wall space 406 mm over-
center between 2” x 4” wall
studs. Follow the installation
instructions for either wall
mount or built-in mounting;
failure to do so may
cause damage or injury.
Wall Mounting Instructions
① Leave the glass assembly
uninstalled until step 10.
② Select a location for the
replace, preferably above an
electrical outlet and there must
be at least one wall stud behind
for the replace to mount onto.
The bottom of the unit must be
a minimum of 356 mm above
the oor (mounting holes 0.75 m
minimum above the oor)
(Figure 1).
Access to the electrical outlet
must be maintained. Ensure the
installation meets the national and
state/provincial electrical codes.
Fireplace Installation
!NOTE: It is recommended
that the bottom of the unit not
be mounted higher than
1.22 m from the ground to
maintain an optimized viewing
angle of the ame.
CAUTION: The replace
must be mounted at two (2)
points, one of which must be
on a wall stud.
WARNING: High
temperatures may be

generated under certain
abnormal conditions. Do not
partially or fully cover or
obstruct the bottom of this
heater. Bottom of unit must be
a minimum of 356 mm above
the oor or any surface
such as a tabletop to ensure
adequate space for heat
exhaust from the bottom
of the replace (Figure 2).
③ With a wall stud nder,
locate the center of the wall
stud, drive a wood screw into the
stud and leave approximately
3 mm exposed threads for the
replace to hang on.
④ The second mounting point
should be picked such that it
is farthest (to the left or right)
relative to the rst one among the
seven (7) keyholes (A to G shown
in Figure 1) on the replace for
wall mounting, these keyholes
are 51 mm apart. For example,
if you plan to use hole B as the
rst mounting hole, the second
mounting hole must be G.
Other available combinations are
A-G, C-G, A-F, A-E, A-D and D-G.
⑤ Mark the second mounting
screw location; ensure that it is
level with the rst with the help
of the provided bubble level and
the replace itself. Screw the
threaded drywall anchor in the
drywall with a Philip’s head
screwdriver until the head is at
against the wall surface.
Caution should be taken when
using a power tool to install a
threaded drywall anchor as the
drywall may distort, tear or slightly
buckle as a result of over-torque.
⑥ With a Philip’s head screw
driver, screw the drywall anchor
screw into the drywall anchor
already in the wall, leave 3 mm
exposed threads for mounting the
replace.
